about

Bless up, Rich Boy.

lyrics

You came from the impossible and did what no man had done. You worked your miracles with a nickel-plated gun. I was bored behind the pulpit so I got into your car. Now I'm outside, engine idling, and I don't know where you are. Oh Lord, save me from Your appetite for everything. Oh God, save me from her appetite for everything.

I'm out here on this service road, and it's getting cold. We liked playing games but this one's getting old. You're inside working wonders on a safe inside a wall. You're marshaling your visions. I'm waiting for a call. Oh Lord, save me from Your appetite for everything. Oh God, save me from her appetite for everything.

I'm suffocating in the skin that surrounds you.

There was something pulling me apart, but church doors held it in. But if you hadn't shown up bleeding, I knew that it would win. And there's something else inside me that moves faster than my thoughts. It's that sorry rodent instinct that keeps me from getting caught. Oh Lord, save me from Your appetite for everything. Oh God, save me from her appetite for everything.
